Personally, as a consumer, i buy the cheaper versions in greater ranges and test them out, if I like them, I'll splurge on the real deal , it's a great way to test whether a fragrance will more or less work for you without having to fork up all that cash up front on a 'maybe'... here in SA it's almost impossible to get samples in store anymore so you have to pretty much spray initially and then buy blindly without testing it on your skin properly for the day etc... it's just a tedious process. I own both dupes as well as the real deal items, I think supporting both is the most logical and money safe way to approach perfume shopping as consumers
Some of these it’s worth testing a decant of the real thing the first time, the Mancera fragrances work out to about 95c per ml on Emir, and on Cedrat Boise is only $1.05c per ml on a full bottle. But I have the Emir version of Tonka Cola, cos the ml price on the real thing is $1.50.
When it comes to an original fragrance vs a clone because most (98%) of people out there are not into fragrances like us fragrance geeks therefore they won't know the difference in quality and ingredients used from "A" fragrance vs "B" fragrance or how close are they from each other!. Just spray on the fragrance you can afford and that smells really nice to you and to others and you'll be JUST fine, I know this by experience!.On the other hand if you are a perfectionist and rabid fragrances collector and have the $$$ to spend then go out and knock yourself out!!!!
THANK YOU for making this video and your comments. I am a huge supporter of clone fragrances. Like I love Creed Aventus, BUT I have only had the pleasure of having a 10ml decant due to the price. Most people can't afford $300-$500 and up for a fragrance. Anyway I am ordering this one as soon as this video is over. So thank you for helping me make my decision. Be well my friend and have a beautiful rest of your day.
hey Dallas. I hate to say but I think Paris Corner have their product price tag bit too high. The Original Cedra Boise constantly on sale at Jomashop for $70(TESTER)-$80 and that's 120ml bottle. This clone is about half of the size bottle, selling for $30. At this point, everyone should go for the originals.
I’ve got a fine line decision when it comes to clones. If I can get the original 50mL or 100 mL for less than $120 I’m getting the original. However i did skip the Cedrat Boise $80 tester and ended up with 3, 9mL decants Cedrst Boise, Reflection Man and Molecule 01 for $90
Perhaps, some people don't need 120ml's of a fragrance. And while the original can be had for a reasonable cost per ml, they'd just rather spend less money overall.
@@chrisSNU I didn't realize it was so much your concern how others spend their money. Different options exist for different people. The wonderful thing about it is the freedom to choose.
@@shawng746 ofc it's not my concern how people spend their money on things, it's not yours neither. However wise people knows when clone pricing gets so close to the OG, they buy/support the OG.
I smelled JPG Le Male and Ultramale; I'm thinking between one of them or Spicebomb Extreme. While I have smelled all the Spicebombs, Spicebomb Extreme isn't available in my region (so I couldn't), but it is available in my airport - meaning if I am to buy it it is a blind buy. Which should I get JPG or SBE, and if JPG which is better?
"Paris Corner - Fire Your Desire" is said to be a great Angle Share dupe but i haven't bought it and am not buying it. I got and love Khamrah which is apparently merely inspired by and not a dupe but i've heard that Paris Corner does good stuff. I adore Khamrah. I just smell it for no reason when i walk by my dresser. Also apparently Charuto Tobacco Vanille smells like Tobacco Vanille
This is VERY similar to Perry Ellis America which I always thought was under rated. America is much more rich,sweet and rosy ( it actually has a nice rose note) Cedrat Essence has more of Sprite/7 up citrus type vibe with sweetness and richness and is more well balanced !! I actually prefer both America and Cedrat Essence to Mancera Cedrat Boise as it just turned bitter on my skin but it was a beautiful scent !!
I smell more vetiver which I don't like as I have numerous $15 - $30 scents which nearly turn same after 1 - 2 hrs so and I got this only as clone as I keep clones of all of my fav scents, sometimes layering them or applying side by side saves the OG ;). Have you tried JUST BERGAMOT EMIR FACTORY EDITION from Paris corner?
Yeah, Emir has taken advantage of all the hype for Cedrat Essence and their clones are all now in the $50+ range so the idea you will get this for under $30 is a non-starter, as is the idea it will go down in price…
I come across your video and enjoy all the video, im 32 from malaysia, not married and take care of my sick mom at home, thanks for making my hard life better even though i unable to buy any perfume recommended by you. the only 1 i afford is halloween man x which is super good, but it take my saving for 3 months to buy that haha, and until now im afraid to use it, haha, i do smell enjoy cedrat boise and roberto cavalli uomo la notte and moustache roachsastester that you mention but its just to damn expensive for me as my daily life is also a struggle, keep on posting fragrance sir, even though i cant enjoy it, but i do enjoy your video every day to release my stress of just living, keep it up!

Keep it up brother. I've had a Malaysian manager back then and he is very nice to me all the time at work and outside of work. I just remembered him when I read your comment, thank you for that. Just strive in life and you will be able to manage all of your shortcomings, I support you and I know you can do it! Let us share more of this fragrance journey!
Does not smell close to Cedrat Boise. It smells good, but I would never mistake it. Gave this to a friend and CB is my gym scent. Can always tell when he's wearing this. Not a CB clone imo.
I just checked it and got really disappointed, in the UK it costs 34 pounds for 75 ml eau de parfum, barely cheaper than the real thing in terms of price/ml... (some people forget that the original Mancera is 120 ml) UPDATE: I ordered the bottle anyway, and surprisingly I got the extract concentration, though I'm not sure how accurate it is - a few days before I also got samples of the original CB + CBI and CBI blows the others away in terms of performance and longevity. The scent is good, a little too candy-lemon in the opening but that goes away quickly. After testing all 3 options I think CBI is going to be my next priority purchase regardless of the price.
I think so, it is similar to CDNI more than aventus because of the earthy note, imagine CDNI but sweet, so if you like sweet fragrances then yeah it's better smelling than CDNI but I wouldn't buy if I already own CDNI, specially the EDP or Parfum which are relatively sweeter than the EDT.
I have this cedrat essence. it's very very weak compare to mancera cedrat boise. you need to spray more than 5 sprays to get equivalent of 1 spray from OG
@@macmazi36 To each their own but personally I've gotten the most compliments I've ever gotten from duas and I have a very big collection including niche and designers, I also get no burnt hair smell.
As a starter, I bought clones that you recommended and I bought this one. It’s so amazing, the smell is something new to me, I wouldn’t know how close it is but my god, it’s so juicy, sweet and overall a great scent. I love it
90% close, main difference (the 5-10% difference) is in the first 20minutes, then it gets very close. Mancera is warmer while this is more bubbly and effervescent (the lemon here is more pronounced while mancera's sweet fruit smell come through more). Coming to the end, mancera's vanilla and woods smell abit less synthetic to me, there is this "ebony wood" kinda smell that i get from my older furniture that the clone lacks. But otherwise it is very close smelling.
Honestly it's a weak one I bought three of Paris corner perfumes this one ,fire your desire and and Voux I think that's how it's written all of them weak in projection and no longevity an honest opinion I bought them here in Belgium and it cost me 40euro for each one of them except fire your desire cost me 35 euro and they Are all not worth.
This one is a no for me. Not sure if I have a bad batch or it needs more maceration, but the best way I can describe the smell is "lemonade soaked cardboard". Pass
I gotta say this clone is pointless because you can get a bottle of Cedrat Boise for a decent price, omg some companies clone fragrances that are not needed 🤷🤦
What may be a decent price to some may still be out of reach for others. $30 vs $90 is a decent span that can add up especially for younger guys and/or newer collectors.
I took the leap of faith on this after seeing it in another of your videos, and this is the first one I'm returning. I'm so disappointed in it. It smells just horrid. I can't even explain what it smells like to me besides some super cheap chalky plasticky candy or something.

Scentsplit is great for that. Samples big enough to test a few times.

Just got this for 17$ in Bangladesh also got their take on Instant crush. Really Impressed.

I actually prefer both America and Cedrat Essence to Mancera Cedrat Boise as it just turned bitter on my skin but it was a beautiful scent !!
Plus $14 for shipping to USA (MA)
I've heard that Cedrat Boise smells different than Cedrat Boise INTENSE.
Does anyone know of a CLONE of the INTENSE version?
I buy cedrat essence in January, after watching your review.And today for first time put 4 sprays, 8 hours and still kicking ass.VERY GOOD FRAGRANCE.
I smell more vetiver which I don't like as I have numerous $15 - $30 scents which nearly turn same after 1 - 2 hrs so and I got this only as clone as I keep clones of all of my fav scents, sometimes layering them or applying side by side saves the OG ;).

Should I buy this one if I already have CDNIM? Help please.
Ya the fruits in cb are more dense and it has some tobacco in it. Quite different scents
It is very different
Got BR Black Walnut Legend for $20 yesterday, it's a decent clone 👌

Have you tried luxodor loyal agar? If yes, is detour noir better than loyal agar. Thanks
Paris corner doing very good work. Oud Satin, Royal Oud, Why etc
Have you ever tried Oud Satin?
Just tried it today, after several hours smelled it reminded me of CK Obsession, got an old bottle of that out and a definite resemblance.

suggestion:
PARIS CORNER "Ministry Of Oud" Oud Satin
being compare to: MFK Oud Satin Mood
45% concentration in cedrat boise intense ❤
I paid $39 AUD ($24 USD) for this, Cedrat Boise is $179 AUD ($120 USD)
If i already have aventus or cdni is it redundant to buy this?
I think so, it is similar to CDNI more than aventus because of the earthy note, imagine CDNI but sweet, so if you like sweet fragrances then yeah it's better smelling than CDNI but I wouldn't buy if I already own CDNI, specially the EDP or Parfum which are relatively sweeter than the EDT.
@@marshens i bought it. It is NOTHING like cdni or aventus. This is a creamy citrus smell whereas cdni and aventus is more of a leathery pineapple
I agree, but I meant the lemon note is identical to CDNI, unlinke aventus which is barely there or almost not there
How much does it last on you?? I got 3-4 hrs decent projection after that it toned down but it did really good on clothes
Is killer oud cabana any good?

Bought it based off gents scents review it’s shit probably never use it. Funny how’s it’s got the exact same comments as gents scents 😂😂😂😂😂
why is gents scents and chaos saying this stuff is good? it does smell like cedrat boise OG, but clearly the formulation is closer to water.
